Dont worry about downtown, it'll look like Ocean Beach soon enough and already smells like it will all the refugees and homeless urinating and defecating everywhere. At least no children live down there.

I was going to go until someone told me the questions have to be submitted to the League of Women Voters and they will pick which ones they want the candidates to answer. And they only get 1 minute to answer. Totally worthless waste of time to go.

The homeless have been here longer than Blakespeare, Kranz and Shaffer. It got worse after the new library opened and the recession in 2008. But there was a population long before that. As for Developers, who do you think is backing Gaspar, Muir and Graham? Follow the money, do a little research on people's contributions....

9:57, we know you're not rich. Blakespear talks about your puny little trust at all the cocktail parties around town. So much for confidentiality and integrity. I'll take Gaspar over Blakespear any day.

7:15, why make someone else do the work? I'll make it easy for you -- pick any meeting, any day, any time. If you open your eyes, you'll see it. Elect to stay a brainwashed drone posting BS on EU, you won't see it.

What 6:42 PM & 10:29 AM is demonstrating (I assume they're the same person) is making a blanket statements without providing a scintilla of evidence to back it up but they expect others to waste their time either proving it or disproving.

How did Gaspar perform? What was his speil - leadership and fiscal responsibility? The handlers know that the roadside signs get double exposure, since the wife is running for Supervisor. Most voters will only see the name and not know that 2 of these sell-outs exist.

That'd be a good thing - this proposed charter school is innovative and Pacific View was previously a school. Teaching kids seems to be in the historical context of the place and it serves the public that elects to attend. If the place isn't used, it'll be condos eventually. I see no problem with possibly reaching a mutually beneficial agreement with this group.

So, Paul Gaspar brags that he rarely changes his mind once he makes a decision. He was referring to Catherine Blakespear's reversal of where to locate the rail trail corridor.

What a rigid way of thinking.

If new, compelling issues crop up in a situation that would make one reevaluate their initial decision, I would say that is a sign of a good leader. A leader needs to be flexible. I guess Gaspar never learned that and I will not vote for a RIGID mayoral candidate.

Gaspar is grasping for straws as he has no political experience except for wearing his wife's heels.

Could you feminist/socialist/angry white liberal women try any harder at slander and character assassination? ALL of you look and sound like the two angriest Cultural Marxists Encinitas has ever seen: Barth and Shaffer. ALL ball-busting bitter "get Cultural Marxists hellbent on destroying traditional values, customs and traditions in favor on a UN-style one world government. Good riddance!!
